Celine Dion's doctor is revealing details behind the star's pregnancy, according to a new report.

People.com reports that Celine's physician, Dr. Zev Rosenwaks, says the star became pregnant for the second time using an IVF (in vitro fertilization) procedure which involved transferring an embryo that was kept frozen for eight years in liquid nitrogen.

Celine, 41, kept the embryo frozen from the time she tried to conceive her first child, René-Charles, says People. She decided to try for a second baby in 2007, Dr. Rosenwaks adds.

Rosenwaks, who is the director of the Ronald O. Perelman and Claudia Cohen Center for Reproductive Medicine at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, tells the mag: “[Celine] is very, very early in her pregnancy.”

Dr. Rosenwaks tells People that when he called the star to reveal the good news, "She was very happy. So was René. They are both very thankful."
